Property transaction has been interpreted to mean any transfer of ownership; this includes transfers of property from sole name into joint, and vice versa, and following the devolution of an estate.
These figures do not include Land Transaction Tax paid on creating a security interest and therefore may differ from other published figures relating to Land Transaction Tax.
